  • slim0nswitch ****** music (@slim0nswitch) reported

    Overwatch picked a bad time to release a mei skin with cornrows not that I find a problem with it cause its based off an actual MMA fighter but we all know noone cares and they wanna yell at something.

  • androgcyborgsam Sam Stinemates (@androgcyborgsam) reported

    @BlizzardCS What's with the major lagging on Overwatch yesterday and today? I know it's not me as ever other game I've got works perfectly fine.

  • MennoKnight42 Menno (@MennoKnight42) reported

    @badatgaems The fact that they lost Jeff is a painfully strong indicator that the company is not working well at higher levels. That man would not have left the Overwatch team for anything, unless something outside the team pushed him out.

  • 9jeo_ jeo (@9jeo_) reported

    @BlizzardCS getting repeated "game server connection failed" messages when trying to login to Overwatch. my client had recently auto-updated before this issue began. was playing just fine 2-3 hrs ago.

  • unlimitedBLACK Crow (@unlimitedBLACK) reported

    It continues to BE a problem despite the Overwatch team acknowledging that it's a problem and saying they're gonna do better. Every time they make another unforced error that draws attention to the problem, it's only aggravated by their failure to actually do anything about it.

  • Atomicthesecond Atom (@Atomicthesecond) reported

    @AlexanderC_G Seriously There is a really nice amount of representation in Overwatch and I honestly can't see a problem here

    OVERWATCH IS BROKEN

  • JustFluxz Justin DeFina (@JustFluxz) reported

    @maximyellow @CSGO there has been cheating issues for years, but its been significantly worse within the past month. The most spinbotters I have seen in prime outside of an overwatch case..

  • mirukozume eli ✿ 🍵 (@mirukozume) reported

    overwatch servers down WHYYY

  • androgcyborgsam Sam Stinemates (@androgcyborgsam) reported

    I just want to play Overwatch but nooooo I gotta lag to death. **** this. #Overwatch #gamelag

  • CottonKittenUwu Pinktokkiuwu (@CottonKittenUwu) reported

    Guys I need help !! So my discord kept crashing and my game on overwatch the whole lobby had ping issues and the server shut down and right after my discord kept crashing. I caught everything on stream. #overwatch #twitchstreamer

  • biggestsonicfan SaltyFreeman (@biggestsonicfan) reported

    Oh, okay, cool. Overwatch now just closes without an error during matches now. Ugh...

  • thecolinginter Colin Ginter (@thecolinginter) reported

    the question I encounter with streaming and YouTube is the "what do I play?" Do I focus on games as a service ala League, Overwatch, COD, Avengers Do I play endless titles like Skyrim, Fallout, Minecraft Or do I just hop into whatever story mode I'm on at that time? Idk man. Idk.

  • FPSpsychoYT FPSpsycho (@FPSpsychoYT) reported

    @SaltyBabyy1 @Enderspiderv2 Yeah, I much prefer the overwatch developers for dealing punishments, like permanent chat restrictions, instead of banning your account entirely from playing over a chal related issue.

  • MichaelNyaa 🐾 Michael Nyaa 🐾 | Neko Vtuber | (@MichaelNyaa) reported

    Sorry for the mess of the stream everyone =( Not only was I banned out of nowhere from Apex (a mistake on their part i'm told) Not only was Fighter Z not working, not only did Overwatch need an update so I couldn't play it, but I was follow botted to top it all off =( (1/2)

  • Its_Just_B3N B3N (@Its_Just_B3N) reported

    Overwatch servers have been dogshit and super inconsistent, i know other people are having that problem too

  • bbeebebebe blake (@bbeebebebe) reported

    overwatch please fix mei’s haaaiirrr 😭

  • CameronDCrump cameron crump (@CameronDCrump) reported

    @BlizzardCS I don’t know if this is the right place, but having issue logging in to Overwatch. Getting “game server connection failed”

  • kaytiearts K.T. | draws art :) (@kaytiearts) reported

    @REDinFamy @overwatchleague I'm not sure I get the audacity. Overwatch has one of the most diverse casts of playable characters out there, and the black woman representation you're asking for is on the way: what exactly is the issue?

  • Chubbzii Chubbzii (@Chubbzii) reported

    @Craz_Eo3 Ok well you shouldn’t have an issue with mobile then. On a side note, what should I upload first from this new editor, overwatch game or siege montage?

  • KanxnKato Kanon (@KanxnKato) reported

    Don't get me wrong tho. Paladins has its own set of problems but Overwatch kinda does a better job at being problematic. 😶

  • HanFlamez Han Flamez (@HanFlamez) reported

    @PlayOverwatch @BlizzardCSEU_EN hey guys, issues with Overwatch? Keep getting "game server connection failed...retrying" errors since that small update.

  • GauravA00137030 Gaurav Agrawal (@GauravA00137030) reported

    @PlayOverwatch Is there anyone else on xbox facing issue in overwatch to get server. I am from India and I don't get server on my xbox for overwatch but on pc works absolutely fine.

  • faild3rp Failderp🐙🥀 (@faild3rp) reported

    I wanna stream, but Overwatch is still broken, and if I can't play something active, I'm gunna sadgorl stare into the distance 🐙

  • KanxnKato Kanon (@KanxnKato) reported

    Don't get me wrong tho, Paladins has its own set of problems. But it's not as abyssmal as how Overwatch has been. 😶

    @CarMuah @nurfed25 read my tweets again. I have no problems with any abilities abilities valorant or even overwatch, just her abilities

  • Lightvoltaire1 Lightvoltaire (@Lightvoltaire1) reported

    @bbeebebebe You could've just stopped at "overwatch please fix mei"

  • CoreyJRichards Corey John Richards (@CoreyJRichards) reported

    The problem with Overwatch in gold or lower is people do not switch to counter. They just stick with one character despite getting countered themselves.
